Perfectly located in the center of the capital (3 minutes’ walk from the metro station Hotel de Ville), La Table Cachée is a restaurant that makes people feel special.
The area itself is very unique: le Marais is a trendy district with a village feel, with many historical buildings as well as art galleries and street art.

The name of this restaurant means “hidden table” in French. As the name suggests, the restaurant is in a place that is difficult to find briefly.

Next to the socks corner on the 5th floor of the BHV department store, there is a small, inconspicuous door. But when you open the door, you are greeted with a very exclusive and luxurious restaurant.

Authentic French cuisine in the heart of the Marais district

Not only is the atmosphere great, but the taste and quality of the food are incredibly good. Please note that famous chef Michel Roth with experience in several Michelin star restaurants, oversees the kitchen. In addition to its unusual location and reasonable price, the warm and attentive staffs of this restaurant allow you to enjoy an excellent meal. 

Like most French traditional restaurants, you can choose here a set menu “entrée – plat -desserts” (starter, main dish, and dessert) or choose directly your courses “à la carte”. There is a great variety of dishes and there are different “plats du jour” (dishes of the day), changing every day. As an example, here are the dishes that we had the chance to try: 

 

Appetizer

If you order the lunch menu, the appetizer is served. That day it was a combination of creamy sauce and poultry, original and harmonious. Perfect appetizer before a consistent dish. 

 

Starter

This starter with fish tartare, thin leaves of scallops, butternut, and mandarin is as beautiful as tasty. The sauce is lightly aromatic, and it smoothly wraps around your tongue.   

 

Main Dish

As for the main dish, enjoy an unforgettable risotto generously served with chanterelles and sheep's feet, spinach, and parmesan foam. Truly heart-stopping!  

 

Dessert

We finished the lunch on a sweet note with a lovely mandarin garnished with whipped cream. Light and refreshing cream and fruit combine with sweet cookies to show off the best pleasure. It is not just an ordinary dessert that is simply sweet, but it is a taste that can only be tasted in high-class French restaurants.

Careful though, the La Table Cachée is first and foremost a discreet venue. So, in this restaurant, the number of seats is limited and privileged. Feel like being part of it? It is better to book in advance just in case.
